- Reaghan - Name: Reaghan James O'Rourke
Age: ---
Gender: Male
Apparent Ethnicity: Irish
Origin: Unknown
Current Location: Aekea West
Family:
{Guardian} Maeko-Hana Frontenac
Pet: N/A
Likes: Attention, Affection, Presents, Punk Music, His Hair, Akshaya
Dislikes: Being Ignored, People who are rude or disrespectful
Vital Stats:
Hair Color: Bright Red-Orange
Eye Color: Green
Skin Color: Pale Porcelain with Freckles
Height: ---
Weight: ---
Basic Appearance:
{Child}- Reaghan has blazing orange-red hair and bright green eyes, a hint at his days as a green wisp. His skin is smooth and pale, almost a milky tone, with a splash of freckles across his cheeks. He is often dressed much like a Catholic school boy, in button down shirts and cardigans. His favorite pair of pants are his khakis, followed closely by his cords.
{Teen}- Reaghan has shed his school boy look for a more hip, stream-line wardrobe. He has traded in his khakis for jeans and his button up shirt for graphic tee's and other "Sk8er" attire. Still bright and spiky, his hair hasn't changed much, minus the fact that he now has a bit of a goatee and his sideburns have grown further down his face.
{Amalgamated}- Reaghan has begun to go for a more grown-up yet casual look, mixing jeans and sneakers with button-up shirts and blazers. His hair has been trimmed down but is still just as wild. He does not look as scrawny as before, having bulked up a bit, due to hiking, biking and playing soccer.
Basic Personality:
{Child}- Reaghan is very shy and quiet, not one to make the effort to be social. His only real friends are Lieneke and Akshaya, though he likes Anatola and Dri. He is very hesitant of other males, feeling very inadequate and insecure around them. He also has the habit of grumbling a lot and easily blowing up at people.
{Teen}- Reaghan has broken out of his shell, thanks mostly in part to dating Akshaya. His insecurities and grumblings have almost all but disappeared as well. He still lacks male friends, but doesn't seem to care much about that.
{Amalgamated}- With the disappearance of his girlfriend Akshaya, and the rest of the Kuatalmots, Reaghan has regressed back into his shell. He has become more mature and somber, introverted and observant.

Basic Appearance: Temma has straight hair that goes to just below her shoulders, which is such a blond shade that it's almost white. Her skin is pale and pink like a porcelain doll. Being a dancer since a very young age, Temma has an under-developed figure, but is surprisingly strong. Due to her upbringing, Temma dresses quite conservatively, preferring long skirts to pants or shorts. She does however wear pants, but only on rare occasions. The only time Temma does not dress conservatively is when she is dancing, rehearsing and performing.
Basic Personality: Temma is a sweet girl, always willing to talk to someone or make friends. She's not bubbly or outgoing, but she isn't shy. On stage she appears to be a cocky Prima Donna, but offstage she is a laid back happy girl. She is the youngest of seven, and so has learned to be patient and understanding. She has used this to her benefit while teaching the young students at her ballet company. She can get annoyed and has a temper with those who have wronged her, but she is generally an even-tempered young woman.

- How Kuatalmots Came to Be - Sukiwen poked her head out of the trapdoor/front door of her house. "Whatchu knocking for?" She asked the postman, who had indeed been knocking.
"Eh, Ma'am? You mailbox isn't big enough." The postman motioned to the box of letters at his feet.
Suki laughed and climbed out of the trapdoor. "Yeah, sorry, I get a lot of mail."
"People like to write you that much?"
"Nah, they're usually not for me. My bills go to PO Box." The girl shrugged and picked up the box of letters.
The mailman chuckled. "Ah, okay. Nice house, by the way." He pointed to the seemingly empty lot behind the mailbox and house number.
"Thank you, I dug it myself. Have a nice day!" Suki turned and dropped the box down the trapdoor, before dropping down herself.
---
Suki pushed orange hair out of her eyes and began sorting through the hundreds of letters that were scattered around the floor. As per usual, none were addressed to 'Sukiwen'. She really had no idea why these all came here, but she had an inkling that the post office was being a bit lazy with the organizing. In any case, she had them here, and she had to do something about them.
"God, these things are multiplying..." She mumbled, glancing at the piles and piles of letters from who KNOWS how long. Her gaze wandered over to her diminishing fire. Grumbling, Suki began poking the logs, and then the idea hit her. Of course! Because of some sort of glich in the system,
Sukiwen had an infinite supply of fire fuel! "Ah, the cleverness of me," She sang and she tossed a few letters into the fire.
At once it flared to life. Satisfied, Suki took up her sketchbook and began doodling. After several minutes of pleasant warmth, there was a large snapping sound, and the flames quickly changed to a dark pink.
"Eh?" Suki asked. She set down her sketchbook and kneeled in front of the fire, staring at the dancing pink light. Well, nothing seemed that weird...apart from the pink-ness, of course. Slightly confused, she chucked a few more letters into the fire and settled down to sleep.
Early morning came and went, and midday sprawled itself over the horizon. Sukiwen awoke to a rather persistent beam of light that came through her...window...skylight...thing. "Ah, bugger off." She mumbled and turned back over. But she was already awake, and she knew it, so she groped around for her glasses and stumbled into the living room.
There was something different. Something out of place...unusual...Sukiwen mentally searched the room, and came to the conclusion that she was making things up. But then she saw...something. A wisp of color. A dark, pink, unusual wisp of...something. "Eh..yoohoo?" She called to it. "Who are you and why are you in my house? And...leave?"
The wisp fluttered down and perched...kind of...on Suki's shoulder. "A bird?" She wondered. Well, it certainly looked like a bird. In reply, the wisp brushed Suki's cheek with its wing-ish wisp. A sudden and unexpected wave of grief washed through her, forcing her to her knees. It was so heart-wrenching, so painful, she wanted to weep for years. And she did cry, but for considerably less time.
"Wha-what ARE you?" She gasped through sobs. "Why'd you DO that?" The wisp fluttered closer to her. "No, no no, don't come anywhere near me." The wisp shook its nearly-wings and cocked its nearly-head. "You're...an emotion." Suki realized after she collected herself. The feeling was really almost gone. "An emotion, from..." She remembered the pink fire. "from a letter!"
The wisp immediately took off into the rafters. Sukiwen knew she had nailed it.
---
The Name
Kuatalmot [koo-ah-tahl-mo] meaning strong emotion
kuat- Indonesian word for strong
al- Greek root derived from val, also meaning "strong"
mot- Greek root for emotion
The Beings
The Kuatalmot were once the emotions that humans put into their letters
to friends, families, etc. The letters delivered to Suki were never opened.
How exactly they became wisps is a mystery to us. We assume that the
emotions inside were strong enough that they needed to be released.
The Shop
Sukiwen and Mekania decided to sell the Kuatalmot when they began cluttering up Suki's house. Mekania bought an old house outside of Barton and turned it into the shop. The Kuatalmot will go on sale every time we can no longer see the ceiling. Sukiwen would like to know more about these beings, so be sure to log anything interesting that happens! The shop will supply a journal for you.

- How Reaghan came to Be - [Reaghan was won in a Raffle. We never roleplayed his purchase, so here is my version of what I think may have happened.]
Maeko had finally broken away from Gambino, where she had been born and raised. Setting out on her own, she chose a place in Barton, not far from her brother Hadley. While spending time with her brother, shopping for new things for her home, Maeko noticed a new shop that had opened up. "Lee, what's that?" She gestured to the shop, "Been open for long?" Hadley, who had lived in Barton for a few years now, glanced over then shook his head. "I haven't seen it before." They stood there on the sidewalk, staring at the shop for a while. There were no signs or posters on the door, the place looked rather plain, but something was drawing them in. "Well...couldn't hurt to check it out...might be the kind of shop that sells kitsch stuff and decorations." Maeko agreed and, linking arms with her brother, headed across the street and up to the door.
Hadley reached for the doorknob first and pushed open the door. Stepping in he made some odd noises, something to the extent of "Ooooh! Hhhmmm...". "What?" Maeko pushed him in the back and stepped in as well, then realized what he was on about, "Oooooohh...". To any normal person the shop would look like a plainly decorated private home. But once you looked up, once you saw the ceiling, you knew this was no ordinary place. Covering the entire expanse were strangely colored airy creatures, floating around and hovering about.
A voice from upstairs came calling, "Hello? May I help you?" A red-haired woman stepped out and came strolling down the steps. "I'm Sukiwen, and you are?" She held her hand out to Hadley and Maeko. The two just stood there with wide eyes and gaping mouths. Maeko lifted her hand, not to shake Sukiwen's, but to point up. "Oh, hehehe, Those are the Kuatalmots. Would you like to buy one?" As Sukiwen spoke a deep green wisp, smaller then the others, came floating down towards Maeko. It paused and hovered in front of her face. "I...well...but..." Maeko's reaction got a laugh from the proprietor. "Don't worry about it, just take it...seriously...Oh! But take this journal too." Taking the leather-bound book from Sukiwen, Maeko just nodded and backed up towards the door, the Wisp following her. Hadley glanced back at the woman and the weird Kuatalmots, then wrapped his arm around his sister and headed out.
They said nothing to each other for the rest of the walk home, just glancing at each other with looks that said "What in the world is it?" and "How did I get myself into this?". Reaching her new home, and being reassured a few times by Hadley, Maeko went inside and crumpled onto the couch. "Emotion? It's an emotion?...but emotions aren't living beings...they can't fly...and they certainly aren't colorful..." She sighed and shook her head, then rolled over onto her side to take a nap.
